Creative? Organised? Sociable? Interested in event management? Find out how you can get involved in BBC Blast on tour.

What will you be doing?

From April to November BBC Blast on Tour offers hundreds of free creative workshops for 13-19 year olds at events across the UK. You’ll be working with a local Event Organiser to help plan and manage one of the Blast on Tour Events.

You’ll be coming up with ideas for marketing and promotion based on your knowledge of youth in the area, helping with production schedules and event planning and working with local facilitators and youth arts organisations to promote the free workshops, master classes and showcases on offer.

A week before the main event arrives in your area the BAT Van (Blast Advance Tour) will arrive. You will work alongside Blast Touring Facilitators to promote your forthcoming event and help deliver taster workshops for young people on board the van. When the main Blast Tour arrives in town you'll be signing people into sessions, supporting facilitators, photographing the event, filming or stage managing a showcase.
